Since 2002, Panacis has established itself as being an expert in the design
and manufacture of battery systems for the military and for "impossible power"
applications that are unmet by conventional products. This expertise can now
be utilised more extensively by using the new, safe, breakthrough Polymer
Lithium Sulfur technology from OXIS Energy.
According to OXIS Energy CEO, Huw Hampson-Jones, "Panacis has a well
established reputation within the Canadian Government and already supplies
batteries to the US Department of Defence. Both countries are members of NATO
and this collaboration will allow us to exploit our respective skills,
expertise and technology to make life safer, lighter and easier for our armed
forces providing the assurances they need to carry out their respective
duties."
"We are delighted to be working with leading edge, new cell chemistry from
Oxis," stated Janet Mason, Panacis CEO. "Its ability to safely tolerate
bullet penetration while providing light weight, high density storage makes it
suitable for expeditionary renewable power applications such as solar and wind
generated energy storage at forward operating bases.
OXIS Energy Limited - Next Generation Battery Technology
Since 2004, OXIS Energy has been involved in the design, development and now
the move towards commercial production of Lithium Sulfur batteries. OXIS has
demonstrable empirical data, justifying its claim on the inherent safety of
its battery technology.
